The Get Outside Mountain Relay is something different. Once you sign up and pay, all you have to do is bring your running gear, costumes, gels, water, tents, sleeping bags, GOMR Village decorations, some spending money, and we’ll take care of the rest. Get Outside Mountain Relay (GOMR) is a 104 mile loop around Alleghany County, NC, starting in Glade Valley, which will be run twice to complete the 208 miles.

What sets GOMR apart from other relays is we are taking care of the race transportation. Get here, and we’ll get you where you need to be. That’s right, we’ll shuttle you to your legs and back to GOMR Nation. That means when you are not running, you will be in our pop-up nation that exists for the weekend. Instead of being split up in two separate vans, you and your team have the opportunity to stake you claim, build your own community, and interact with a whole nation of Gomers.

Join The Iron Project on a visit to Kings Mountain where history was made. Our faculty helps guide the team through the history of the site and connect the decisions made there to a primary training objective. Learn more.

In honor of Veteran’s Day (the day of the race on 11/11) and all who have served our nation in the armed services, the Charlotte Marathon is proud to offer a first for a big-city marathon — a half-marathon ruck marching division. This division of the race is presented by F3 Nation and The Iron Project.

Here at The Iron Project, we love a good CSAUP. So, we decided to be the Platinum Sponsor of the F3 Lake Norman Basin Relay Run.

Join us on Friday, November 3, for a 70 mile relay run around Lake Norman, North Carolina. You don't even have to worry about missing football or family time on Saturday. The race will wrap up between 8am and 12pm on Saturday, November 4. Find 5 of your best buds and get going.
